Hot Pan Noodles Dumplings - Batavia

We love this place! We live north of Woodfield Mall. When we are out this way, we come to eat at Hot Pan. This place does not disappoint. The noodles are fabulous!

Great place, great noodles! Found it a few months ago And have been back several times to eat and have sangria! Highly recommend!

Ordered dandan noodles, vegetable lo mein, and pork dumplings for carry out. Dandan noodles had just noodles and broth, didn't realize I had to order extra everything to get what the picture shows. Lo mein was bland. the dumplings were bland.Dumpling wrapper was good. Dandan had good flavor, just expected to get at least vegetables and green onion. Pictures really set the bar high and I was really disappointed.Also, glad we ordered carry out cause it smells like someone smokes cigarettes in or right outside all day.

Food just flat out isn't flavorful. Ordered the shrimp dumplings, pork dumplings, and shrimp fried rice. Hard to mess them up, but some how it happened here. Second time we've ordered from them and same experience. Not our cup of tea.

This review really hurts as we want local restaurants to thrive but......sometimes constructive criticism is helpful. Walking in we were the only ones there, not a big deal. Sat at a booth and noticed a few tables hadn't been cleared of dirty dishes. Looking around the place, it really needs a thorough cleaning. Chunks of whatever are hanging from the ceiling fan, pretty disgusting. The owner came to us and asked if we'd like anything to drink, not the most personable guy but hey, we all have off days. After our drinks arrived we ordered some pork dumplings, not bad at all. For our dinner we each ordered the Pan-Fried Lo Mein Noodle plates, one chicken and one pork. Tasty but they lacked amounts of pork and chicken.
